ResumoConsiderando a importância dos nervos que compõem o plexo braquial, objetivou-se estudar a origem e distribuição do nervo toracodorsal. Dessa forma, foram utilizados 30 fetos de suínos da linhagem Pen Ar Lan obtidos de abortos naturais em criatórios da região do Triângulo Mineiro. As peças foram preparadas por meio de injeções de soluções de Neoprene Látex "450" a 50% e de formaldeído a 10%, na artéria aorta descendente, e imersão nessa mesma solução por um período mínimo de 48 horas. As dissecações foram realizadas bilateralmente até atingir o plexo braquial, que surgiu dos ramos espinhais ventrais do sexto (C6), sétimo (C7) e oitavo (C8) nervos cervicais e do primeiro torácico (T1). Constatou-se que o nervo toracodorsal foi formado a partir de C8 em dois antímeros (3,33%); de T1 em 17 antímeros (28,33%); e de C8 e T1 em 41 antímeros (68,33) e que houve simetria quanto à sua origem em 23 animais (76,66%). Verificou-se, também, que o nervo toracodorsal enviou ramos em 100% dos casos para o músculo grande dorsal e em 36,66% para o redondo maior.

Considering the importance of the nerves that make up the brachial plexus, the aim was to study the origin and distribution of the thoracodorsal nerve. Thus, 30 pig fetuses from the lineage Pen Ar Lan obtained from natural abortions in breedings of the Triangulo Mineiro region were used. The specimens were prepared through the injection of 50% Neoprene Latex "450" and 10% formaldehyde solutions in the descending aorta artery, and immersion in the same solution for least 48 hours. The dissections were carried out bilaterally until reaching the brachial plexus, that emerged from the spinal ventral branches of the sixth (C6), seventh (C7) and eighth (C8) cervical nerves and from the first thoracic (T1). It was found that the thoracodorsal nerve was formed from C8 in two antimeres (3.33%); fromT1 in 17 antimeres (28.33%); and from C8 and T1 in 41 antimeres (68.33) and that there was symmetry with regard to its origin in 23 animals (76.66%). It was also found that the thoracodorsal nerve sent branches in 100% of cases for the latissimus dorsi muscle, and 36.66% for the teres major.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
